Fragments: The Prodigal Son by the Unknown - from the press of William Rastell, possibly around 1530.

It's a return to full cast audio production this year, with this short fragment of The Prodigal Son plus introductory exposition. 

CW: The text plays with misogynistic ideas of the shrewish wife, and there is an unfortunate use of a word which has an alternative modern meaning to firewood.



In the fragment known as The Prodigal Son, or Pater, Filius et Uxor - Uxor was played by Leigh McDonald; Pater by Geir Madland; Filius by Simon Nader, and the servant, Robert Crighton.

The Prodigal Son was hosted and produced by Robert Crighton.
